    on giving hints or offering the full solution

    It's all so simple; you help people or you don't. I never understood the whole purpose of this thread. See, I'm not going to advice a beginner (I don't like the word "newbie") who just figured out how to use a mask, to stop helping other beginners with the same problem. I don't see any harm...

    "To the 5 Buroughs" Cover question.

    Dear MsOz, you're confusing things; the thread was started by rold_gold, not me. :D

    Which OS

    XP is slightly better than W2k, but don't expect any shocking things. I can come up with a fact list of thing that have improved in XP, not based on a personal view, but on a technical view. However, I see no areas of improvement that would make PS7 run better on XP than Win2k. I would not...

    Adding Contrast with Color Complements

    I was playing in PS using this tutorial. Quite amazing to see how magenta adjustments (all I did!) in CMYK can have such an effect on the contrast;

    "To the 5 Buroughs" Cover question.

    Welles, also check his other stuff; quite interesting things he made. I also have the impression that he was slightly influenced by Esher in a few of his drawings.

    "To the 5 Buroughs" Cover question.

    I do have to admit that I made the assumption that some higher contrast settings were used which made the background look plain white and moved some of the grays towards pure black after the drawing was scanned.

    Adding Contrast with Color Complements

    Adding Contrast with Color Complements A very interesting and useful article , especially when you're into photography. I already found it 2 years ago but I always kept it (PDF). http://www.graphics.com/modules.php?name=Sections&op=viewarticle&artid=26

    Welles!! :bustagut: I knew you were going to look for it too! Should have used the back button. :D

    "To the 5 Buroughs" Cover question.

    If you say so... :\ But before we make this an ongoing discussion, I now decided to do some research; I found the artist who made it (Matteo Pericoli). This is the story behind the drawing; "Manhattan Unfurled" and "Manhattan Within." Matteo Pericoli began working on "Manhattan...

    Pen tool Tuts and Tips

    I want to add this one too; http://geology.asu.edu/glg410/lectures/L27images/AI_lesson4.pdf (PDF, 225KB) It's one of the better tutorials I found in the past. It's focused on Illustrator, but lots of the techniques can be used in Photoshop as well.

    "To the 5 Buroughs" Cover question.

    I looked at it for a minute and I can only conclude that this was completely done by hand and most likely done with a pencil on a piece of paper; the good ol' way. :righton: (scanned at a later stage).

    Pen tool Tuts and Tips

    Thanks Pierre! :righton: It's always good to have some tutorials about vectors, still a thing lots of people seem to have trouble with.

    New Board look

    Suggestion Mark; to bring back that option to view all posts of the current day, previous days or weeks. You know what I mean. It's just that I sometimes don't finish reading all the new posts at once and when I return hours later they're all marked 'read' and I have no clue which ones I didn't...

    Would you pay a small price to learn?

    Yes, that really makes sense. Oh, I see. Good idea, since for example 40% of the US is still on dialup. True, but I would wonder (and this is personal) when I would see high quality samples why this guy is asking only $10. Personally I think it's a good idea. After years of sharing...

    Would you pay a small price to learn?

    24,95 that's what I consider a reasonable price; a) cheap considering the work you've put in b) it's still cheaper than what most others offer c) it expresses a certain quality. I personally wouldn't bother with a $10 CD It also has to do with how you believe in yourself. If you think...
